Lyrics

It’s not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You’re still young, that’s your fault
There’s so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

I was once like you are now
and I know that it’s not easy
To be calm when you’ve found something going on
But take your time, think a lot
Why, think of everything you’ve got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not

How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again
It’s always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

It’s not time to make a change
Just sit down, take it slowly
You’re still young, that’s your fault
There’s so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want, you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I’m happy

All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It’s hard, but it’s harder to ignore it
If they were right, I’d agree, but it’s them you know not me
Now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

Malgré la moustiquaire

Posted by mclearskin on March 5, 2009

 

Sous la moustiquaire

Il se fait tard. L’enfant apprend encore.

 

Les milliers d’insectes de l’hivernage se moquent bien des moustiquaires, car ils arrivent quand même à pénétrer à l’intérieur. Pourtant, tous les pans touchent bien le sol. Qui a une explication?

Au Sénégal, une moustiquaire à deux places coûte seulement 2000 CFA dans les dispensaires. Utilisée avec soin, elle peut servir pendant des années. Si elle n’est pas très efficace contre les bestioles de l’hivernage, une moustiquaire protège absolument contre les moustiques.

A Miracle

Posted by mclearskin on November 24, 2008

Millions of pilgrims go to Lourdes, a world famous city located in France, praying and hoping for wonderful miracles. Jacques did not need to go that far away. A miracle happened on his balcony, back in the nineties.

Click on the following link: African Football, and you’ll read the French story of a miracle. If you – just like me – don’t believe in miracles, you’ll be amazingly surprised. Such things can happen. Sometimes. To some people. Till now, the only miracle I could experience in my life is to collect millions of problems. Hopefully your experience is much better than mine.

See you.
